“Why am I a Personal Trainer and group fitness trainer? Why do I want to help women with their mental health through exercise? Why am I striving to improve women’s relationship with exercise, themselves and their happiness?”

​

This is my why.

​

I swam & danced through being a teenager but I was never an avid exerciser!

In 2009/10 it was my dream to join the Air Force. I put so much pressure on myself I developed exercise related anxiety. I couldn’t even run 100m without having a panic attack or feeling one coming on. I couldn’t exercise properly, I was eating terribly & partying way too much. The less I exercised the worse my anxiety got, meaning it was harder to exercise, which meant I became more unfit, which made my anxiety worse. You see the cycle.

I got to a point where I was so unhappy with how I looked and how I felt that I knew I need to make a change. I joined a gym and hired a Personal trainer. I explained to him how much I was struggling with moving my body, my mental health & my weight. We took things slow and within a few months I noticed a dramatic difference in my anxiety and my relationship with fitness.

Deciding to immerse myself in fitness, make a change to move on from my anxiety and not let it rule how I felt about myself, exercise and my goals, changed my life so much!

​

This is why I want to help you. To bring you the same joy & happiness & love I get to experience every day thanks to exercise, my community and my team.

I am so much happier in my life, myself and my mental health since I put myself first, took the plunge and challenged myself.
